They do comply, the problem here is you seem to have no clue about what the GDPR actually says.

This is slashdot, it doesn't matter how inaccurate his rant was, it was anti MS so it will get modded up even though it should be modded down into oblivion.

I think people are completely misunderstanding the change here. You can still offline activate you just can't do it by phone. You can go online (on a seperate computer and enter the code and get an activation) or if you are a enterprise or gov you are unlikely to be using phone activation and instead will be using a MAK or a KMS server. the only thing that has changed here is you can't use the phone as a method.

Not at all they have kms and mak for that. If yiu are running an serious air gapped network you would have access and kmowledge of them.

By the time they switched to windows nokia was already dead, it was a latch ditch effort to save themselves.

Outselling other utter failures is not a measure of success, especially when many other massive failures also outsold the cybertruck

I would find it rather amusing if the final nail in the Oracle coffin was AI rather than their predatory licensing. That said their isn't a single bubble, many companies are getting a practical benefit out of AI, some (like Oracle) are ploughing massive amounts of debt into AI in the hope of finding a benefit.

GPS uses coordinated UTC not NIST, NIST contributes to that so at worst their is a chance of some fraction of that error propagating in. Also as you mention the source is just to set them to be in sync with each other, so unless they were being synced with different sources at different times it should not be an issue.

If it goes under then of course the consumer is worse off, The streaming service still dies, You sitll don't have an independent party and content creation will be heavily impacted while people pick over the bones. If anything them going under would be the worst case for consumers, but probably the best case for competitors (short of buying them)

Their goal is to realign CNN to be more like fox with a heavy right wing pro trump agenda.

yes it is definitely a positive. But you will always get fucktards looking to sue or potentially they are just tools of Paramount looking to block. The reality is it is a fucking mess at the moment with too many streaming providers and all of them lacking content because of it. Warner Bros discovery is in the financial shitter so blocking this successfully would only mean even worse content or someone else merging there content (i.e. paramount).

one way or the other Warner Bros is going to be sold, whether it is to netflix/paramount or some other party is the only thing questionable. They are in serious financial distress and if you block the sales you will be far worse off as a consumer than if they are sold.

Then your corporate IT are incompetent, they should be settings up trusted locations internally so users are not getting warning for standard reports.

99% of users have no fucking clue. You could tell them exactly what it is going to do to their computer and they would still click ok.

They were disclosed, even microsoft disclosed it a month ago, though really this one isnt really a vulnerability, more if the user is dumb enough to ignore the OS security warns and run an untrusted lnk file anyway they could be in the shit, just like running random executables.
